I'm still trying to get my head around "we picked it up and put it in the trailer
sideways, on top of the golf cart". I know your Turismo is a light car BUT??

I'm with you Phil, SOME kind of explanation needs to come from that southbound group. If the Turismo is sideways, wouldn't they need a "WIDE LOAD" placard front & rear & a flashing yellow light?

If alcohol was not involved it is going to be a good story. I take that back it might even be funny with alcohol involved.

After stopping at the grocery store for sundries, we've made it to the holding lot. Keep your eyes out... They're using the south gate this year (where overflow Stockers were parked last year), 2nd entrance if you're coming in from 706 -710 direction like you're supposed to. Not well lit... Just now getting generator lights up and running.

There goes another light generator out to the road now.... That'll help!

Michael, what time do they get started tomorrow, and what is the run order?
